6.3 Smaller Scale Development on the Same Location <br /> 6.3.1 In General <br /> This section will evaluate the alternative of a project <br /> consisting of a smaller scale development on the same site as the <br />L project. Only those significant environmental impacts which were <br /> determined to exist for the maximum project will be examined in the <br />L - discussing of this alternative, it being presumed (with one exception) <br /> that a smaller scale project could not result in the appearance of <br /> substantially adverse environmental effects beyond those identified for <br />L the maximum project. <br />L (The one exception concerns the achievement of Redevelopment <br /> Plan goals. The imposition of a lesser maximum development may make the <br /> project unacceptable to the project participants, thus making this~ <br /> alternative equivalent to the "No project'1 alternative. A large <br /> reduction in scale, even if accepted by the project participants, may <br /> result in redevelopment too minor to achieve the economic revitalization <br /> of the Fashion Square Main Street Shopping Center conuercial area. The <br />L continued decline of that area would itself be a substantial adverse <br /> environmental effect.) <br />Li <br /> With respect to those significant effects identified for the <br /> - maximum project, traffic impacts are by far the most serious and will be <br /> treated in considerable detail in the following subsection. The other <br /> identified significant effects can be discussed in more sunnary fashion <br />Li <br /> as follows: <br />-i <br /> (1) Land Use - If the project site were reduced to avoid the <br /> acquisition of the Fidelity Savings building parking area, the potential <br /> parking problem involving that building would be eliminated. However, <br /> the project would lose the benefit of direct access from the Broadway <br /> overpass. <br /> 201
